Are you trying to create new chapters for making your DVD? What model of digital camera do you have? Is it a digital video camcorder or a digital still camera? If you are capturing from digital video camcorder as DV-AVI files, you should be able to review your chapters in the "Chapter Setting Room".

The camera is a JVC Everio. It makes it video in a MOD mode that only is readable by Cyberlink software. After video taping for 10 minutes you will have 2 or 3 small movie. If you watch them on the TV you cannot tell you are watching the 2 or 3 movies but when you bring them to the computer, you see the 2 or 3 small movies. Each of those movies shows up as chapters. We video tape students working. So one student may have 3 chapters and each chapter is inside the title but not watch able as a whole movies. We have to watch one chapter, then the other and possible more. I would like to take all those small movies and make one movies for each student. This way if we are watching Sally, she has her own movies and if we want to watch Bill, he has it own complete movie with no chapters. And to make it worse, the camera connects via USB so I can only go to the movies folder and import them – I cannot actual capture. The camera does not get recognize as a device. $800 for the camera - $200 for software and nothing.

Hey man, know what you mean! I got an Everio G the day before yesterday and was trying to do something like that too... What I did was that I made *.avi files from the chapters and merged them with a program that i called VirtualDub, and that works perfect for me... Well, good luck with it anyways

Obviously I'm missing something...

1. Why not burn one disc for each student, eliminating whatever you don't want him/her to see? You can delete whatever you don't want, from any file.

2. Is your complaint the fact that the software is putting in so many chapters? Go into the chapter room and remove the chapters.

I'm a little confused.
The Everio is a hard drive camcorder, so I don't think your issue is related with how it connect to your PC.
PowerDirector can't capture anything from the Everio camcorder.
You can only import the clip.

1. I think it will be better if you can copy the clips from Everio to your PC before you doing anything.
2. Then you can import the clips to PowerDirector and merge them in Timeline.
3. Produce the project to a file or MOD format if you want copy back to Everio camcorder.

BTW, the MOD clip is almost the same with MPEG2.
So you can try to modify the extensions from mod to mpg.
Then it might be able to be recognized by other software.
